Get yourself some:12AWG CL2 Rated 2-Conductor Oxygen-Free Pure Bare Copper Speaker Wire Cable (For In-Wall) or for out of wall from MonoPrice.com, some Deadbolt Banana Plugs, 12-pair, By Sewell Direct and get you some Adapter Eico Amp Speaker Banana Tip Plug 24K 0551626 from eBay. Best sound ever.

I used 16 gage and my system sounds fine. The thicker the wire is, the better. But I think 16 gage is fine for most applications.

I have the P363's with a Yamaha HTR5860. I have regular gauge speaker wire you can buy at wal-mart or best buy running to them and they sound great.

You can use 14 or 16 AWG speaker wire. I used 14 AWG plastic coated wire from Monoprice. Copper wire is best. http://www.monoprice.com/Product?seq=1&fo;rmat=2&p;_id=2791&kpid;=2791&CAWELAID;=1329459423&CAGPSPN;=pla&catargetid;=320013720000063196&cadevice;=c&gclid;=CL7F3MGko8ICFdKEfgodOIkARA

No, Question for you. Did you use all 20ish feet of wire that shipped with the speakers, If so, that is most likely your problem, use as short of wire are possible to reduce the chances of electrical signals feeding into the speaker wire. I took that wiring and threw it in the garbage, grabbed some slightly thicker wire cut it to about 5 inches for signal and ground then soldered the crap out of everything and covered it with shrink wrap. I also reused the OEM connectors.

It depends on how far your speakers are to your receiver I used 12 gauge. Here is a link that might help you: http://www.hometheaterforum.com/topic/172172-speaker-wire-what-size/

you will need xlr cables or you can also use rca cables. I use xlr cables because I go to powered subwoofers and speakers.

there are different ways to wire it, if your receiver has a sub-out plug on it just get a powered subwoofer cable and plug into either r or l on the woofer. Does not matter which one. hope this helps.

I used 16ga. Speaker wire that came on a reel. I did not use any connectors just plains ends connected to speaker and receiver. Works great.

you just connect your fronts and center channel speaker wires from receiver to the speaker bar. You can use bare wire or banana plugs. This is a non powered speaker bar.

I get the need for the AV cable, but does a single male to male cable work? The subwoofer has left and right in-jacks, so do you need to buy a female to male splitter to connect to the male/male cable coming from your receiver's sub/out? I think the instructions say you can hook up the AV cable to the sub/in Left but why wouldn't you want to use a right and left sub/in hookup? I don't get it? Also, can someone tell me whether 16 g speaker wire is good enough or is 12 g better? I'm not too tech-savvy.

Hello. We would recommend using a 4 gauge amplifier power cable, and a minimum of 16 gauge speaker wire for the subwoofers. If you are installing the amplifier further than 10 feet from the subwoofer, you will need to use a minimum of 12 gauge speaker wire.

Wires are required for all speakers except the subwoofer. It comes with a cable for the subwoofer though and some cheap speaker wire. I used this: C&E 100 Feet 12AWG Enhanced Loud Oxygen-Free Copper Speaker Wire Cable, CNE62270

What type of cable(s) do I need to hook up the audio to an amplifier Thanks Jellik

if your receiver does not have a dedicated subwoofer outlet then you will need a special wire. it's RCA to speaker wire, and it's kinda pricey for a wire. you would have to tie into the left and right speakers, or maybe even all sides of the surround. the quality might be diminished since it's trying to push all the frequencies through the speaker, and not just the lower bass frequencies. heres a link to the wire you would need.

I did not use the RCA connectors..the back of my receiver is mostly set up for my computer system. I just spliced another speaker wire into each speaker output--left and right, input and ground, and plugged the two wires from each side into their corresponding connections on the SW. It works great this way....took longer to strip the existing wires than it did to set up the sub.

Speaker wire is not included. I used Monster XPMS 50 speaker wire (50 feet). 16 AWG. Sweeeet! Cut it to the desired length and stripped back about an inch of wire to connect both ways. Is it live or is it Monster? What? I can't hear you!

How does Yamaha RX-V667 7.2-Channel Home Theater Receiver goes along with this?

Just plug the red and black wires into the back of the amp or receiver. Unless you don't have an extra slot for the sub. If that's the case I'm not sure how to help.
